Maybe the name should be changed one day, but there is a way to do things like that and such a process requires initiation and oversight by the core development team, after all we are still at development stage for now and we don't even really know what else Evan is reserving as a surprise for Darkcoin.... I've rarely heard a supposed perfect marketing strategy or rebranding suggestion so seemingly single-minded and so lacking in real substance or planning. Come back with a business plan if you feel so strongly about this? Whats also funny is they call the current supporters of Darkcoin single-minded for supporting the actual name of the coin we are invested in, creating services for and trying to promote, right now
The name is only one of many very important items that should be visited and planned out, and I'm very confident that Evan has this planned out far more then many here realize.
I also would agree with r-ando. As the very first brick and mortar business to accept Darkcoin back in February/March, I would say I have one of the best insights to "public" response or lack of and customer feedback(that is a topic for another day). As a business owner...and not a techie I have a very different perspective. The problem I see is we have many people in here that have NO CONCEPT of financial systems, marketing and just general business acumen. This is a big problem when one is trying to promote a financial instrument.
For perspective...My company is nearly worth the market cap of this coin! and I'm one of the smallest wineries in my region...a tiny player. What we have are many people here have no business or financial systems knowledge. What is needed is a board of professionals from multiple areas, Financial, Business, Software Developers and Marketers. We need a "business plan" in essence...this is BUSINESS 101! If I were asked I would certainly be interested in sitting on said board.
